Walkthrough:
DM text upon entering- The Tomb of the Blighted is infested with vile
roots and putrid water.
So you enter in to find a nice holy water shrine sitting in a stench
fulled bog of a tomb. Head a bit further in, break your way down the
hall a short way, and find a water container. Use this to grab ten holy
water vials from the fountain. Then trade it to next person in party, so
they can grab ten for themselves, and hand it down until all have some.
Set them in your quick bar, they are thrown weapons, super holy grenades
of doom!
Now a bit about the dungeon. It is roughly a triangle, with three more
holy water fountains you need to get to and purify. Here's the rub, the
vines in some places have grown so nasty, you need to weaken them with
your holy water vials before you can break them. Also, the water in this
place is so nasty it will make anyone ill. No magical or supernatural
abilities or spells are going to help you, either. Except for super holy
water from the shrines. Walk in it to clear off the boggish goo. You can
also shatter the vials on the floor, then walk through the puddle.
Optional to cleanse all the urns in the side tunnels, also using the
holy water.
When you reach the other fountain rooms, you find them nasty and green,
guarded by Blight Guardian Troglodytes. Don't get too close to the
fountain, you can;t usually see them, but they are covered in a huge
gelatinous cube. It will grab you and suck you in, paralyzing you and
feeding off your bones while you slowly digest in its acid filled goo.
If you are resourceful, you can get the trogs and slimes to wander into
the cube tho. Either way, you need to destroy all three cubes to cleans
the fountain, once doin so it will become a happy place, capable of
filling your vials and washing your feet.
Once all the fountains are cleansed, the way from the beginning, where
you found the holy water pouch, is now accessible. Head there and slay
the mummy.
End Reward: Standard choice. |
